¹Wae wo'o koi' tobine, mengkoru-koi hi tomane-ni, bona ane ria-ra tomane-ni to uma mepangala' hi Lolita Alata'ala, kehi-ni toe-mi mpobalii' -ra jadi' mepangala'. Uma mingki' ni'uli' -raka napa-napa,

¹In like manner, ye wives, [be] in subjection to your won husbands; that, even if any obey not the word, they may without the word be gained by the behavior of their wives;

²apa' kampohilo-ra kehi-ni to moroli' pai' pengkoru-ni, kehi-ni toe-mi mpotudui' -ra, pai' -ra mepangala' -mi-hawo hi Pue'.

²beholding your chaste behavior [coupled] with fear.

³Ane doko' subo' -koi, neo' kasuboa' to hi mali-na-wadi, hewa mporampai wuluwoo' ba mpakancola woto hante bulawa pai' pohea to masuli' oli-na.

³Whose [adorning] let it not be the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on apparel;

⁴Poko kasuboa' mpu'u-le, mehupa' ngkai rala nono-ta, hewa rapa' -na tobine to monono pai' to mo'olu kehi-na. Toe-hana kasuboa' to uma ria kabalia' -na, pai' to masuli' lia oli-na hi poncilo Alata'ala.

⁴but [let it be] the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible [apparel] of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

⁵Apa' wae wo'o-hawo po'ingku tobine to owi to moroli' katuwu' -ra pai' to ncarumaka Alata'ala. Tobine toera jadi' subo' apa' mengkoru-ra hi tomane-ra.

⁵For after this manner aforetime the holy women also, who hoped in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands:

⁶Hewa rapa' -na Sara mpotuku' hawa' -na Abraham tomane-na, pai' nahanga' -i tua. Hiaa' koi' ompi', ma'ala ta'uli' ana' Sara-mokoi, ane nituku' po'ingku-na to lompe' pai' uma-koi me'eka' ane ria to mpobalinai' -koi.

⁶as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose children ye now are, if ye do well, and are not put in fear by any terror.

⁷Wae wo'o koi' tomane, tuwu' hintuwu' -koi hante tobine-ni, pai' penonoi beiwa ohea-ni mpotulungi-ra, apa' karohoa-ra uma hewa karohoa tomane. Aga nau' wae, tobine-ni bate hibalia hante koi' hi poncilo Alata'ala, apa' nawai' wo'o-ra-rawo katuwua' to duu' kahae-hae-na hibalia koi'. Toe pai' kana nibila' -ra hewa to kasipato' -na. Apa' ane uma-koi hintuwu' hante tobine-ni, telawa' mpai' posampaya-ni.

⁷Ye husbands, in like manner, dwell with [your wives] according to knowledge, giving honor unto the woman, as unto the weaker vessel, as being also joint-heirs of the grace of life; to the end that your prayers be not hindered.

⁸Ka'omea-na, tuwu' hintuwu' -ta omea, hameha' hawa' pai' hanono lau, momepoka'ahi' hewa to ntali ompi', lompe' nono pai' mpakadingki' nono hi doo.

⁸Finally, [be] ye all likeminded, compassionate, loving as brethren, tenderhearted, humbleminded:

⁹Ane ria tauna to mpodaa' -ta, neo' tapehawai hante to dada'a. Ane ralibui' -ta, neo' tatimalihi-ra. Agina-pi gau' to dada'a toe tapehawai hante mperapi' -raka gane' to lompe' ngkai Alata'ala. Apa' Alata'ala mpokio' -ta jadi' topetuku' -na bona mporata gane' to lompe' ngkai Hi'a.

⁹not rendering evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but contrariwise blessing; for hereunto were ye called, that ye should inherit a blessing.

¹⁰Hi rala Buku Tomoroli' te'uki' hewa toi: Hema to doko' goe' pai' lompe' tuwu' -na kana mpojagai wiwi-na bona neo' -i mpohowa' lolita to dada'a, pai' neo' -i mebagiu.

¹⁰For, He that would love life, And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips that they speak no guile:

¹¹Kana nabahakai gau' to dada'a pai' babehi-mi gau' to lompe'. Kana nahuduwukui mpali' kahintuwuaa' hi doo.

¹¹And let him turn away from evil, and do good; Let him seek peace, and pursue it.

¹²Apa' Pue' mpewili' tauna to mpotuku' konoa-na, pai' na'epe pekakae-ra. Aga na'ewa tauna to dada'a gau' -ra."

¹²For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, And his ears unto their supplication: But the face of the Lord is upon them that do evil.

¹³Ha hema-hana to mpodaa' -tae ane tida-ta mpobabehi po'ingku to lompe' -e?

¹³And who is he that will harm you, if ye be zealous of that which is good?

¹⁴Aga ane rapa' -na mporata kaparia mpu'u-ta ngkai kehi-ta to monoa', marasi' lau-ta ompi'! Jadi', ane ria to mpongasai' -ta, neo' tapoka'eka' -ra pai' neo' koro'.

¹⁴But even if ye should suffer for righteousness' sake, blessed [are ye:] and fear not their fear, neither be troubled;

¹⁵Tonu katuwu' -ta hi Kristus, pai' pangaku' -mi Kahi'a-na-wadi Pue' -ta. Kana taporodo ami' -mi petompoi' -ta mpotompoi' tauna to mpekune' -ta napa pai' ncarumaka Alata'ala-ta. Aga tatompoi' -ra, hante lolita to mo'olu pai' hante nono to dingki'.

¹⁵but sanctify in your hearts Christ as Lord: [being] ready always to give answer to every man that asketh you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, yet with meekness and fear:

¹⁶Pai' uma ma'ala kasalaia' po'ingku-ta. Po'ingku-ta kana hewa to masipato' hi topetuku' Kristus, bona ane ria tauna to mpobalihi-ta, me'ea' huli' lau-ra-wadi mpai'.

¹⁶having a good conscience; that, wherein ye are spoken against, they may be put to shame who revile your good manner of life in Christ.

¹⁷Lompe' -di ane mporata kaparia-ta sabana ingku-ta to lompe', ane toe konoa Alata'ala hi kita'. Agina lau-pi toe, ngkai mporata kaparia sabana ingku-ta to dada'a.

¹⁷For it is better, if the will of God should so will, that ye suffer for well-doing than for evil-doing.

¹⁸Apa' Kristus wo'o mporata kaparia nau' uma ria sala' -na. Mate hangkani lau-i-wadi mpokolo jeko' manusia'. Hi'a to uma ria sala' -na mposampei-ta to masala', bona nakeni-ta hi Alata'ala. Woto-na rapatehi, tapi' rapotuwu' nculii' -imi hante baraka' Inoha' Tomoroli'.

¹⁸Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God; being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;

¹⁹Hante baraka' Inoha' Tomoroli' toe, hilou-imi mpopalele pedagia-na hi rate-rate to ratarungku'.

¹⁹in which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison,

²⁰Ratarungku' -ra toe sabana pesapuaka-ra hi Alata'ala owi nto'u katuwua' -na nabi Nuh. Nto'u toe owi, moloe ahi' -na Alata'ala mpopea kabali' nono manusia' bula-na Nuh mpobabehi sakaya-na. Aga ka'omea-na, Alata'ala mpogero dunia' hante ue, pai' walu-ra-wadi tauna to mesua' hi rala sakaya pai' mporata kalompea'.

²⁰that aforetime were disobedient, when the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water:

²¹Ue to mpogero dunia' nto'u toe, ma'ala rarapai' -ki ada peniu' tempo toi, apa' ada toe mpokeni kalompea' hi kita' wae lau ompi'. Aga ada toe bela-hawo ada to mpobohoi' wotoloka' -ta ngkai to babo'. Ada toe taponcawa pomperapi' -ta hi Alata'ala, taperapi' bona nabohoi' nono-ta ngkai jeko'. Pai' nabohoi' mpu'u-tamo ngkai jeko' -ta, hante katuwu' -na nculii' Yesus Kristus.

²¹which also after a true likeness doth now save you, [even] baptism, not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the interrogation of a good conscience toward God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ;

²²Katuwu' -na nculii' toe, hilou-imi hi suruga, pai' -i mohura hi mali ka'ana Alata'ala. Hawe'ea mala'eka pai' topoparenta pai' pue' -pue' to mobaraka' ntani' -na, rapopengkoru hi Hi'a omea-ramo.

²²who is one the right hand of God, having gone into heaven; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
